"And here we are," Ryland looked up at the Meagan and chuckled as he held the door open for the women to walk in.

Aliceabella stepped inside and paused, wondering if there was any point in staying considering Ryland would be showing Victoria her room.

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 2:44 pm

Victoria smiled at Aliceabella as Ryland left. She stepped up to the counter. "Is the penthouse free?"

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 2:52 pm

Aliceabella shifted Vlad's weight on her hip and tried to remove her key from her pocket.

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 2:53 pm

Victoria smiled as the receptionist replied in the affirmative. "Put it on my tab then. Asher."

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 2:56 pm

Aliceabella blinked, suddenly making the connection, "Your an Asher?"

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 2:59 pm

Victoria laughed her tinkling, cold laugh. "Yes little girl. Have you heard of us?"

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:00 pm

Aliceabella nodded, "Your family name was well spoken of where I come from."

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:01 pm

Victoria smiled again. "The Ashers are well spoken everywhere."

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:02 pm

Aliceabella smiled, "It must be nice..."

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:03 pm

Victoria laughed and didn't answer, picking her bag up. "So, little girl, where are you staying?"

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:06 pm

Aliceabella considering protesting that she wasn't a little girl, but instead just help up her room key. "I keep getting lost though."

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:07 pm

"Room 483?" She looked askance at the concierge with her most flirtatious smile. "Is that fourth floor?"

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:10 pm

Aliceabella looked down at Vlad who had fallen asleep and smiled faintly.

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:11 pm

Victoria waltzed off triumphantly. "Follow me, little girl."

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:12 pm

"Not a little girl..." Aliceabella muttered, walking carefully so she wouldn't disturb Vlad.

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:13 pm

Victoria laughed. "How old are you?"

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:14 pm

"Eighte-" Aliceabella stopped as she realised she'd turned nineteen a week ago and not realised, "I'm nineteen, but I'm old for my age."

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:16 pm

Victoria laughed that cold, cruel laugh. "How much older?"

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:18 pm

"You mean aside the fact I feel about twice my age?" Aliceabella laughed softly.

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:19 pm

"That still only makes you thirty eight. You're still a little girl in my book." Victoria waltzed towards the elevator.

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:20 pm

Aliceabella shrugged, "Ryland calls me it too."

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:21 pm

"Do you know how old I am?" Victoria pressed the button to go up.

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:22 pm

Aliceabella shrugged, trying to judge. "Over five hundred?"

Subject: Re: Humble Abode Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:24 pm

"I'm seven hundred and fifteen." Victoria closed the elevator door, laughing.
